Larry,
What may be happening is VI is downloading the file into a temporary space and then using IE to display it. This won't work because IE by itself can't interpret the VBScript directives inside the < %'s.

Try opening the browser and access the page via the URL (e.g. http://MyMachine/MyPage.asp. This should cause the page to be dilvered by PWS and not VI.

HTH.
